Good popcorn flick.

Rating: 7/10 (19 July 2005)

I wasn't expecting deep philosophic commentary, and I didn't get it. The moral issues involved are cut-and-dried and there are no real surprises here. A couple of tearjerking scenes help give the film a bit of emotional impact, but don't kill yourself bringing hankies to the theater.
Good action sequences. MacGregor and Johanssen seem to play well with each other. SFX were generally good, though a couple of scenes were obvious green-screens. Could have done without the boatload of product placement ads (counted at least eight, and there were probably more).
On the whole, not bad but not fantastic. I'd see it on cable again, but I wouldn't rent it.
